Whenever someone puts the word “healthy” in front of a baked goods recipe, I’m always immediately skeptical. Chocolate isn’t supposed to be healthy. Cookies aren’t supposed to be healthy. And pie? Forget about it. So throw those things together to make a chocolate chip cookie pie and the result should be instant diabetes on a […]

Repinning others’ content is one of the best ways to meet new people and find cool pins on Pinterest. However, if you aren’t careful, repinning can bite you in the butt. Some people are pinning improperly or with less than pure intentions, and if you repinning these pins, you’re passing on bad links to your […]

This recipe has been around for a long time. I’ve seen versions of it on the back of the dry onion soup mix box and in several recipe books. It’s simple and doesn’t take many ingredients. Sometimes that’s all we have time for. If your oven is on, this is an easy side dish to […]

Today’s recipe is not one I recommend. Not at all, actually. These Jello Cookies were downright nasty. Seriously, that doesn’t even sound good. I don’t know what I was thinking. Jello cookies? Blech. So why post it? Because I keep seeing people repinning this recipe on Pinterest! At least three or four times a week, […]

I didn’t find this recipe on Pinterest but this is a quick and easy cake that I have been making for a long time. I found a version of this recipe in the 2004 Taste of Home Annual recipe book and also found a version online. It is easy, just like the chocolate muffins Allison […]

Did you know that you can tag your friends in the description of a pin, which will notify them that they’ve been tagged? It’s quite handy when you pin something they’ve created or you want to alert them about a pin that they should see. If your friend follows a lot of people, they might […]

I’m not a fan of salmon. It’s okay I guess. But I am a fan of really easy recipes that make almost no dishes dirty! So I just had to try these salmon pouch thingies, as pinned here. maybe this would be the recipe to change my mind about salmon! I originally saw them pinned […]

I may be super picky (Allison’s note: that is a TOTAL understatement), but man do I love good garlic knots. Usually any good bread related recipe involves a lot of time waiting while the dough rises. But let’s be honest. While I’m perfectly fine baking a labor-intensive recipe, 9 times out of 10 I’m way […]

Y’all, I am not lying when I say this is one of the best desserts of all time. I know that my last recipe was so easy it made you want to kiss someone, but this apple crisp is so good that you will NOT want to kiss someone. Because if you’re kissing, you can […]

One of the ways other pinners will find your profile is through Pinterest’s search function. Other Doctor Who fans will find your Doctor Who pins when they search for TARDIS. Other people who like flowers will find your gardening pins when they search for daisies or roses. Other people who enjoy the beach will find […]

I have a confession to make. The title of this post is a half-lie. These “muffins” are actually more like cupcakes without the frosting. But I’m going to call them muffins because 1) it makes them healthier and 2) it means I can eat them for breakfast. Also, the original pinner called them muffins so […]

I’ve been addicted to Pinterest since the moment I signed up. It wasn’t long before my sister Jessica was hooked as well, and our mother, Sharon is a brand new convert. Spending so much time on Pinterest, it didn’t take me long to realize something: lots of people repin recipes and other projects that they […]
